Fowl most fair

Sunday was a day for unusual long-tailed fowl. Why can’t we get the Roadrunner theme song out of our heads?

ROAD RUNNER — No coyote in sight as the Ferndale peacock runs along the county road near the sheriff’s substation on Sunday morning.LONG TAIL — We think this is a scissortail flycatcher. If so, he is east of his usual range in western Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma and parts of Missouri. This bird was riding a wire near Grider Field in Pine Bluff.

Wow! It’s been a couple years since we saw one up on the mountain (weird place for it to be anyway). Isn’t always the way, great opportunity. No photo. 🙂 Thanks for dropping by and enjoy the rest o’ the week.
